In a recent episode of the popular talk show, The Graham Norton Show, some unexpected and hilarious moments took place. A star-studded lineup of celebrities, including Pedro Pascal and Ariana Fraser, joined host Graham Norton for a lively and entertaining discussion.
Pedro Pascal, known for his roles in hit TV shows The Mandalorian and The Last of Us, talked about his newfound fame and the attention that comes with it. He admitted to being unsure how to handle all the “Daddy” references he receives on social media, particularly on Twitter. With fans gushing over his good looks and calling him “daddy,” Pedro found it amusing but also a bit overwhelming. Memes and comments about his attractiveness have flooded the internet, and he jokingly expressed that it’s starting to stress him out.
Meanwhile, Ariana Fraser, who recently won an Oscar, shared her experience of receiving recognition for her work. She revealed that she uses pseudonyms for her songwriting credits, keeping her involvement a secret in case the songs do not perform well. Ariana disclosed two of her pseudonyms, Anita Joby and Suka Fat One, and shared her excitement when one of her songs with Kygo and Dean Lewis became a hit.
As the conversation continued, Pedro and Graham delved into learning the nuances of the UK language. Pedro admitted to not fully understanding certain phrases, such as “crack” and “mug off,” which are popular terms on the reality show Love Island. The friendly banter highlighted their efforts to connect and laugh about the cultural differences.
Anya Maxwell Martin, another guest on the show, revealed her phobia of having fruit touch each other in a fruit bowl. The discussion turned into a lighthearted exchange about unusual phobias, with the guests sharing their own fears, including revolving doors and closed spaces.
The episode also featured Eddie Redmayne, who shared a surprising and amusing anecdote about his audition for Les Misérables. Eddie recalled how Taylor Swift, who was auditioning for a different role, joined him in a screen test. To create the desired look for her character, Taylor had to have her teeth painted brown, much to her dismay. Eddie humorously remembered how he met Taylor, dressed as a 19th-century French street urchin, while he himself had just finished eating garlic dough balls from Pizza Express. The unexpected circumstances and contrasting appearances created a comical audition experience for both actors.
Throughout the episode, the chemistry between the guests and Graham Norton kept the energy high and the audience entertained. The episode showcased the lively atmosphere and witty conversations that The Graham Norton Show is known for, leaving viewers eagerly anticipating future episodes filled with more humorous and memorable moments.
